The Sierra Club announced its endorsement of Nevada Attorney General Catherine Cortez Masto for U.S. Senate.
“The Sierra Club is proud to endorse strong environmental champion Catherine Cortez Masto for U.S. Senate,” said Sierra Club Executive Director Michael Brune. “From fighting to protect Nevada’s Yucca Mountain from being turned into a nuclear waste dump, to encouraging the continued transition to 100% clean energy, to protecting Nevada’s vast and unique public lands, Cortez Masto has consistently stood with Nevadans and we look forward to working with her in the Senate.”
As Nevada’s Attorney General, Cortez Masto has worked with Minority Leader Harry Reid to combat plans that would turn Yucca Mountain into a nuclear waste site.
“The Sierra Club shares my priorities of protecting and preserving Nevada’s public lands for future generations and I’m honored to have their support in my campaign to be Nevada’s next Senator,” said Catherine Cortez Masto. “Their support highlights a clear contrast between myself and my opponent, Congressman Heck. While I am dedicated to ensuring Nevada’s lands are protected and our natural resources are utilized to create clean, sustainable jobs, Congressman Heck supports taxpayer giveaways to Big Oil and is willing to negotiate the health and safety of Nevadans by reviving Yucca Mountain. I look forward to continuing to work with the Sierra Club as Nevada’s next Senator.”
The Sierra Club will be mobilizing its members and staff this election to support endorsed candidates like Attorney General Catherine Cortez Masto.
